“These past six months have shown how imperative it is for businesses to pivot in some fashion – how they market, how they deliver, or even how they sell. Our first workshop on e-commerce led by Eric Shanfelt this past spring was extremely popular,” states Sandy Schneider-Engle, MCC Director of Business Development and Executive Director of the Fort Morgan Area Chamber of Commerce. “We decided to bring him back in order to provide our business community with additional strategies on how they can expand operations and increase efficiency through various e-commerce initiatives.”
